[dj ben2]

im drinkin at least 2.5 litres of water a day i cant get enuff of the stuff im eating lots of protein but im not pissing nearly as much as im drinking + im gaining weight im guessing its water retention but why exactly does water retention occur?

 

[MrS]

Protein uses up a lot of the water in your kidneylivers.

Keep in mind that you lose a lot of water through sweating and breathing.

any other water retention is related to your salt balance (sodium, potassium, etc.) but that would be a sort of bloating, so if you don't feel bloated, it's probably one of the above answers.
